Sorry to be a cynic, but there are some radical feminists who reading this will say, "That doesn't mean she wasn't raped--it can be very difficult for women to decide to get away from their rapists..."

From Rape Case Thrown Out When 'Victim' Sends Accused Cards, Love Letters in Prison (Associated Press, 9/20/08):

A Winnipeg man awaiting trial for rape has had all charges dropped after the alleged victim admitted she sent the accused cards and explicit love letters behind bars.

Crown prosecutor Wendy Friesen initially told court earlier this month that the woman adamantly denied sending the letters and that they must have been forgeries.

But after a brief recess, Friesen said the woman changed her story and admitted she had written them.

The woman claimed in the letters that she missed the accused and was pregnant with his child.

The woman had originally claimed the accused broke into her home in October 2007, choked her, forced her to drink alcohol and snort cocaine, and then took advantage of her after she passed out.

Defense lawyer Sheldon Pinx said the woman should be charged with mischief, obstruction of justice or even perjury.
